Why not just buy a running 5.9 and drop her in as is or even do a ring and bearing job on that ?

That the same as the 300hp create engine and add a cam and you got the 380hp create or inbetween depending on cam.

We're looking at doing that down the road. We got this engine for $50. Lol. If for $350-$400 we can freshen it up I see it as a good cheap investment
